Picked up a new “tailed” (electric) machine this week, a 301A. Some call it a big sister to the featherweight, but it really isn’t. The 301 was Singer’s 1st slant-needle machine….making it easier to see your work. All slant-needle Singers were manufactured in the Anderson, SC plant; hence the “A”. This one was made in the mid to late 50s. Sews like a dream after a little clean-up.
